Further Explanation:

Mannerism is a style of art that was introduced for the first time in Italy and it was introduced post the end of an era of high Renaissance which lasted between 1520 to 1590 and that brought the beginning of the Baroque style of art. This art was initiated in Florence and Rome and in the matter of no time; this art spread its roots to the northern parts of Italy along with central parts of Europe. The figures which were there in the Mannerist works frequently had queerly elongated limbs which were very gracefull.  

The art style of mannerism is known for its urbanity along with other artificial qualities. Its style of art influences the compositional tension instead of the balance and clarity of older renaissance painting. Mannerism is encompassed by a variety of approaches that react to the harmonious ideas which are associated with artists like Leonardo da Vinci and Raphael.
